ABOUT THE GOLDEN DONKEY
The Golden Donkey is a magical adventure that begins with an ordinary man and a mysterious key that unlocks a hidden vault of secrets. When Mark discovers a golden donkey statue that appears to be alive, he is pulled into a world of ancient mysteries, unexpected dangers, and unbelievable discoveries.
Chapter One
A Glimpse Into The Adventure
The key was heavier than it looked. Mark turned it over in his hands, feeling the weight of something far older than he could comprehend. The engravings along its surface seemed to shift in the dim light of the attic—symbols he had never seen before, yet somehow felt familiar. And then, from the shadows behind the old trunk, something glinted. Something golden.
The Storyteller Stacey McAlister is a Colorado-based storyteller and lifelong dreamer whose imagination was inspired by ancient legends and the creative spirit of his grandson.
